50 Cent gets paid more money to keep show on Starz

"Man, I didn't even know they had that kind of money" - 50 Cent said about his new "Power" deal with Starz.

According to 50 Cent, who is also the executive producer of "Power," the network has offered him an unbelievable huge sum of money to keep the show on Starz.

This is after 50 had asked fans to cancel their Starz subscription as he was taking "Power" off the network.

He had explained that people watched Starz because of "Power," and "Power" because of him.

Sharing his excitement on Instagram, 50 Cent said he didn't know the network had that kind of money.

Prior to this, 50 Cent had repeatedly hinted that he was moving the show from Starz to BET after Starz refused to give "Power" two extra episodes earlier this year.

Also, in December of 2016, he said he would no longer promote the show outside of his contractual obligations after what he described as a Golden Globes snub.

Weeks before the season four finale, 50 Cent took to Instagram to say that the network had accused him of leaking episodes of "Power."

After the ratings of the leaked episode went up by 10 percent, he accepted leaking the episodes.

The fifth season is expected to debut in 2018.
